The Nursery is Complete!

...and just in time!  Lil Man was born on the 22nd.
Here are the pictures.  The only thing left to do are to fill those empty picture frames!

Nursery Valance

The valance has been hung and now all we have left to do for the window is add room-darkening floor-length curtains. 

I had picked out the valance design in my head long before I went pattern shopping.  Unfortunately, when I finally found the perfect pattern, it wasn't on sale and for some reason never could catch a sale price for it.  So I turned to a good friend who also sews and I should have known to just ask her first.  She had the exact pattern I needed and had already used it before.
The only changes I made to the pattern was that on the back, for the lining, I used ivory-colored black-out fabric in order to keep the light low.  Because I used a curtain rod that "wraps around" the window, I shortened the length of the curve of the valance and added more length to the straight sides so that it will "wrap around" the curtains once we get them hung. 
So here is the partially-finished window...note that eventually, the side edges will wrap around the curtains hung from behind the valance.  Oh, and the walls are not pink. :)
